Meaningful volunteer work

certificate of volunteering
with children

To be a good teacher is my dream. During january1st, 2009 to April 24th 2009, I was the member of the Sunlight Volunteer Club and I spent 10 hours in this club, I also learned a lot in this club. Sunlight Volunteer Club gives a chance to me and helps children in need, every times we went to there, they welcome to us and with their happy small face.
That day we went there with heavy rain, only five kids were come, they took their homework and textbook to here, my job was teach a Grade five child mandarin, In the beginning I think it is a piece of cake to a grade 10 student, I have confidence to taught that, but when the child asked the third question, I was thinking a long time, I did not answer the question, my face became red, I felt embarrassed, than I check my e-dictionary, I knew the answer at that time, I understood that as a Chinese, the important of Mandarin. After that they asked other questions, I always patient to him and answered his question. Afterwards, I taught a boy English, I thought my English level is not very bad, so I taught them easily, the boy are too laud, in the beginning, he did not asked one question and he told me that he understand all the knowledge they had learn, when I asked him some questions he did not know one of them, but I was patient to him and taught him a lot.
Another day, I came to there that is a sunny day, we decided to take them go outside play games, I asked the person who manage them, she allowed us take them to outside , also their parents are agree. Then we took them to KTV and have singing, we are arrived KTV, and they said that is the first time went to KTV, in the beginning, I thought they was afraid about their environment, but when we got into box, they was relaxed. We let them choose song first, but all of them were shy, they did not want to sing first, so only our classmates singing, but during us singing, they also singing with us, than we singing together, they became excited, and always grab the microphone with us.
One day, we went to East of Beijing Road Primary School near our school and taught Grade 5 students learned English, taught two girls, they study very hard, one of them is class monitor. This time, I taught them how to say and write country name, language and people in English, I think it is difficult for Grade 5 students. At last, they only can remember some of these.
This term, I was teaching some students, I think it is a meaningful activity, I was enjoy teaching from Volunteer Club, next time will keep doing volunteer work, and do more things and help others, I will let more people to join us, and tell them how meaningful it is.

I remembered that day was parents’ meeting day, my mother and I finished parents’ meeting and went to their quickly. At 7; 30, he was emerge, the first music is <<>> that is one of my favorite music. I choose this concert because I had study play the piano for five years, I always want to watch Richard Clayderman piano concert, see what different between he and us. Luckily, he will come to Nanjing; of course I had watched that.
When I heard <<>> melody of piano, I felt I come in to an autumn fairy tale, warm and romantic. My favorite music is he reorganized <<>>; I like to see an aesthetic view in my eyes. Also my favorite link that he invited many children like 5 to10 years old to play<>that is famous Chinese music, the feeling of all surrounding was climax, most of audiences was clap their hands.
I felt so exciting and interesting, because my dream came true, I watched a high-quality piano concert, play the piano still my hobby I do not want to give up that. From that time, I played the piano everyday up to now, it can improve self-cultivation. I like to watch this kind of piano concert, also I admire Richard Clayderman, he has prefect piano skill, and I hope one day I also hold a concert like him.

Cook the chocolate cooks

On 11th April 2009, it is Saturday; I came to school and study how to cook, with my GCA teacher.
First, Ms Bartell divided into six groups, each group cooks different food; it has jello, cooks pudding and so on. I was divided in chocolate cooks group, I felt lucky, because I think the easy and delicious are cooks group. Our teacher is a French girl, she tough us how to make cooks, we bought all the things we need. First, we put the butter in the bowl, afterwards we use microwave oven make butter melted, than add all the sugar and beat the mixture, then add the egg and continue to beat the mixture, add the flour and the yeast. Beat again, cut the chocolate in little pieces and put it in the dough, mix. Make little heaps with the dough and put it in the oven (temperature of heating about 180oC). We saw that it is ready, put the cooks out of the oven, and then let them cool, we can eat it.
We ate the cooks and made it, it is delicious. This is first time I made cooks, when I go back to home I taught my classmates, like same way, we made more cooks and students and took to school, give teachers and students try it, most of them think that taste good. I was happy to hear that.

Go to church

On 26th April, 2009, my mother and I went to 396 Taiping Road, Nanjing St Paul’s church. Nanjing St Paul’s church is first Christianity church in Nanjing, the exterior use of Gothic architecture, the interior structure use of Chinese traditional framework, I went there at 11 am, the Christian told me that there are giving a English Christianity lecture, so I was going to the room.
The lecture started at 10; 30am, so I was late for 30m, I saw many of Christian sat in there, some of them are western, so I did not have seat to sit. I heard the person who stood in front of stage from western said something about Jesus, he had excited spoke with his body language, sometimes, he put up hands, sometimes, and he opened the Bible and read some sentences, sometimes, he asked Christian some question, Christian answered him, sometimes, as a leader leaded them singing and reading. Many of audience are Christian, they study follow the leader, open the Bible and reads something, I never come to church and join this kind of speech, and also I have something do not understand, like he said that Jesus’ cry…., but I known that he said people like house, car, money...if Jesus want you give up that, Would you like to do? It means the most important of us are not money, but is helping, only help others you can enjoy feeling happy, I like this kind of speech, I think it can washing heart. Afterwards, I know I was lucky that speaker was invited from western to interpretation Bible.

Cherry Ada and me

Last Saturday, I want to Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum with my classmates Ada and Cherry. It was one of Nanjing Foreign language students Ms Chen's calligraphy show. Originally, we want to go to Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, but that day all NFLS students went to The Great Hall of the People and watched performance, we finished watching that and I saw Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum near Great Hall Of The People, so we all went to there visited.
We came to the museum, and saw lots of different style of calligraphy dazzled my eyes. I thought why did she has a lot of time to wrote so many beautiful calligraphy, she must spend more time to do that, I also saw a paragraphy wrote from NFLS principal Mr Dong, it wrote about this student, I was very admire her. My favourite calligraphy is wrote Long Live, Our Motherland in Chinese, it was celenrate China established sixty years.
I like this exhibition, because this exhibition shows artwork from our school, I feel pround of I am one of a NFLS student, and I was interested in calligraphy, so I did not felt boring about that. When we prepare to live, I found a special book, near that book has Chineses brush and Chinese ink, we asked the person who responsible that, he said we can write our name in this book, it represent you came to there. Then, we held the Chinese brush and wrote our name in it. That page has Ada Cherry and Annie's name, we turned front of this book, we found that we wrote was the worst writing, but we think that was intersting.

Yesterday, my mother and I ate lunch in Round Table. Round Table was a western restaurant, located in Nangjing 1912 street, so it is easy to go to there.
We arrived there, and saw there was so many people waited, so we also waited about half hour. I opened the menu, it has eight varieties, i t include bread, salads, drink, soups, hight-eibre vegetables, meat, desserts, and beverages. Everyone can choose one of each of it. I think this can make you easy to order food. A little while, salad and soups was hold on the table, it looks colourful and very high nutrition. I tasted it, it was so delicious.
Next, I was tried to eat prawnt+ filles streak, they called it grand meal of ocean and land.There has cauliflower, maize and carota with my grand meal of ocean and land, looks great, I can not wait, I want to tasted it. First, I tried the beefstreak, it was not too hardened, that is good tasty, the prawnt was better than streak, it has sauce on it
The envirenment in there was good. When I came into Round Table, I saw a trangle piano, when I sat down, waiter took each person a flip, it make costomer felt emotional appearl. I also saw a woman with a foreigner went to there to eat, and there are many pair of lovers ate in there, so if you fall in love, that is a good place to eat. The cost was fifty nine each, that can admit.
